| 1 | Crossgales KingCrossgales King won three starts back and was second the run before that, and he has run on today's going before, so there's solid substance behind him. A fifth last time out is the one blot, but a 31-day break and a top ranking of one in six make him the one to beat, carrying 169 lb. | 4217-5 | 6 | 12-01 | Benjamin Macey(5) | Syd Hosie | 111 | 11/2 |
| 2 | Can't Resist ItCan't Resist It arrives fresh from a fourth last time out, 22 days ago, with another fourth two starts back and a fifth three starts back, and he has run on today's going before. Our rating of 108 ranks him third of six, but he is yet to win in recent starts and carries 162 lb. | 0/54-4 | 7 | 11-08 | Kielan Woods | Fergal O'Brien | 104 | 16/5 |
| 3 | Apollon ForlongeApollon Forlonge arrives with a strong profile, a second last time out, another second two starts back and a win three starts back, and he has run on today's going before. The main risk is a 260-day absence, and he also carries 161 lb off an official mark of 112. | 3122- | 4 | 11-07 | Sean Bowen | Warren Greatrex | 112 | 6/4 |
| 4 | Count AdhemarCount Adhemar won last time out and was second in each of the two starts before that, but he returns after 219 days off and carries 161 lb, which makes him hard to fancy. He has run over today's trip and going, and our rating of 103 ranks him fifth of six. | 55221- | 6 | 11-07 | Theo Gillard | Donald McCain | 103 | 11/4 |
| 5 | Klassy PearlKlassy Pearl has twice finished second in her last five outings, and she has run over today's trip and going before, while our rating of 105 ranks her fourth of six and puts her firmly in the mix. The main risk is a 204-day absence, with a sixth last time out, though she does carry only 158 lb. | 62286- | 6 | 11-04 | Richie McLernon | Clive Boultbee-Brooks | 100 | 5/1 |
| 6 | Zero ToleranceWinless in his last five, Zero Tolerance was only sixth last time out after a second and a third before that, and he's hard to fancy off 152 lb. He has run over today's trip and going, though, and our figures still rank him last of six. | 34-326 | 9 | 10-12 | Adam Wedge | Mrs C. Williams | 94 | 7/1 |
